Erstausgabe Signiert
Hardcover. First Edition. Original full vellum (9-1/4" x 13-1/4") with four raised spine bands, the spine lettered and decorated in black. Printed by Albert Frost & Sons, Rugby, on thick, high-quality paper and extensively illustrated with plates reproducing the original woodblock cuts. SIGNED on the front endpaper by its co-translator "The Good Wishes of/Herbert Hoover." The Hoovers' translation of Agricola's treatise into English was the first ever and is prized for its accuracy, clarity, and inclusion of extensive footnotes, appendices, and indices. The proposed printing run was initially 3,000 copies -- which cost over $20,000 to produce at the time due to plate replication -- but the actual printing was about half of that. Herbert Hoover and Lou Henry Hoover (1874-1944) had both graduated with Geology degrees from Stanford University, in 1895 and 1898 respectively. Hoover had over ten years of professional experience in the mining industry as a mine scout, an independently contracted mining consultant, and a mining company executive. Hoover had distilled his hands-on experience in early twentieth-century gold, silver, lead, and zinc mining in a series of lectures delivered at Columbia and Stanford Universities, and published as PRINCIPLES OF MINING in 1909. Lou Henry's knowledge of geology was no less expansive, and she was also a linguistic scholar, eventually mastering Latin, French, Spanish, Italian, German, and Mandarin. Largely unopened, usual offsetting to endpapers with postage stamp of Hoover on front pastedown; minor soiling to vellum. About Fine.

In his senior year Lou Henry, also from Iowa, enrolled as a freshman. As the first woman, she received the first A.B. in Geology in 1898 from Stanford awarded to a woman. They were married in 1899. Over a five year period they labored to produce this translation for which they received the 1914 Gold Metal from The Mining and Metallurgical Society.
